A REVOLU
It was late evening of August 28, 2008. I was in one of the
relief camps in Saharsa District (Bihar) where millions
had been affected by the floods. I had lost members of my family in the disaster, and my business and shop had
been destroyed. I was completely lost, ruined and directionless. Many people were coming to our tents to console and support us. But o certain figure, peace and love radiating from her personality came to visit us. Her presence was incredible for me. She held my hand, consoled me and said few but powerful
words of courage. Those words penetrated my heart. I
decided to conquer the situation and stood up with the courage to rebuild my life
Today, two years after the flood, my life is smooth again
because of the tremendous support, encouraging words and unconditional love she showered on me.
